3 out of 5 stars Not bad, but not actually very good.   April 15, 2008

Undoubtedly fair value at the price, but not quite what I had hoped for.

The small speakers have an annoying habit of falling over backwards at the least provocation. The little stand built into the base of the speaker cabinet makes them lean back slightly, but the weight of the cable (particularly on the RH speaker) makes them very unstable.

They can't actually play as loudly as my existing pair of Creative speakers (which were only 10) without introducing very audible distortion. The bass unit has to be played at a very modest level, as the crossover is really at too high a frequency - and the bass is very obviously coming from just one place, whereas a real subwoofer produces sounds too deep to locate the source. In reality, the small speakers produce tinny mid & high range sounds, boosted by some extra mid-range frequencies from the bass box. True bass is completely absent (try classical or organ music if you are in doubt).

But this is asking too much for less than 25. The other reviews were very complimentary, but the speakers are not worth 5 stars, but well worth what I paid for them.

5 out of 5 stars Great with an LCD TV   March 1, 2008

I bought these to use with the Sony Bravia 32" TV I have also reviewed. The sound from LCD TVs is OK, but rather lacking in depth due to the small speakers used. Simply plug the jack plug in to the headphone socket (which cuts the TV's internal speakers off) set the A300's volume control to about 1/4 and enjoy clear highs and nice lows. The good thing for me was the 2 satellites fit just nicely in the LEVV glass stand, and match it in appearance too. My speakers sit either side of the SAT box. It took me a while to adjust the bass and treble on the TV, and the sub-woofer level, to get the sound to my liking, but it was well worth it. For the price, magic.


5 out of 5 stars Definitely Inspired by these great speakers!   February 11, 2008

I've bought a couple of Creative products in the past and have always been pleased with the quality. I was on the look out for some PC speakers for my other half. I didn't want to spend too much and found the Creative A300 2.1 speaker. At just over 20 they were the right price for me and I'd say they are amazing value. The set up was easy and once connected they were soon delivering a great performance - our music collection never sounded so good. The bass was deep and rich; even turned down low they sound great! If you have a low budget for a set of speakers don't think you have to compromise on quality as you'll go a long way to beat these.
